Get all the stench jokes out of your system:  come August 19, the new SPY KIDS:  ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD won’t just be in tired old 3D, but in what they’re calling the 4D of Aromascope.  In other words, everyone will be issued scratch ‘n sniff cards, and at various times in the movie, we’ll all be prompted to take a whiff.  If previous curiosities like Hairspray‘s Odorama (this was before it was a John Travolta musical) are any sign, expect some innocuous scents and a few that are really foul. The good news:  no extra surcharge for the privilege of sniffing.
